“Our promise is simple: to deliver only the home essentials we truly believe in. We reject the ‘buy-and-discard’ mindset by providing authentic, high-quality pieces you’ll treasure—and actually use—for years to come. Each BoxU bundle is a thoughtfully curated treasure chest of kitchen tools, dinnerware, bathroom essentials and bedding designed to make your first days in the UK effortless and memorable. We hope you find as much joy in unboxing our products as we do in putting them together.”

— The BoxU Founders, 2025

Founded in 2025 by Rex and Owen, BoxU sprang from our own frustrations as new arrivals in London—empty apartments, endless shopping lists, and the fear of “starting from zero.” We set out to redefine the art of settling in by partnering with trusted suppliers and hand-assembling semi-customizable starter bundles that arrive at your door before you even unpack your bags.

Today, BoxU enjoys a growing following among international students, young professionals, and busy families who value convenience without compromising on quality. Our online shop offers a seamless, customer-centric experience: from easy bundle selection and transparent pricing to flexible add-ons and reliable UK-wide delivery, we make setting up home a joy rather than a chore.

At BoxU, every team member is obsessed with two things: sourcing the best home essentials and making you feel part of our family. Whether you’re ordering a Kitchen Starter Kit or simply exploring our Bathroom Essentials Box, we work tirelessly to ensure your journey—from browsing to unboxing—is smooth, supportive, and sprinkled with delight.

Whether you’re shopping online, sending us a message, or calling our friendly support team, we can’t wait to welcome you to the BoxU family and help you settle into your new home with confidence and ease.
